NAME

       strtoimax, strtoumax - convert string to integer type

SYNOPSIS

       #include <inttypes.h>

       intmax_t strtoimax(const char *restrict nptr, char **restrict endptr,
              int base);
       uintmax_t strtoumax(const char *restrict nptr, char **restrict endptr,
              int base);

DESCRIPTION

       These  functions  shall  be  equivalent  to  the  strtol(),  strtoll(),
       strtoul(), and strtoull() functions, except that the initial portion of
       the string shall be converted to intmax_t and uintmax_t representation,
       respectively.

RETURN VALUE

       These functions shall return the converted value, if any.

       If no conversion could be performed, zero shall be returned.

       If the correct value is outside  the  range  of  representable  values,
       {INTMAX_MAX},   {INTMAX_MIN},   or   {UINTMAX_MAX}  shall  be  returned
       (according to the return type and sign of the value, if any), and errno
       shall be set to [ERANGE].

ERRORS

       These functions shall fail if:

       ERANGE The value to be returned is not representable.

       These functions may fail if:

       EINVAL The value of base is not supported.
